Description

The HPE Apollo 4500 Systems family provides density-optimize Big Data servers that are purpose-built for object storage, Hadoop, and Big Data analytics solutions.

Gathering intelligence from Big Data for competitive advantage is key, but you need to meet the challenges of the volume, velocity, and variety of this new data.
HPE Apollo 4500 Systems are purpose-built for Big Data solutions like Hadoop, Big Data analytics and object storage, and growing data volumes—at petabyte scale and beyond.

Organizations of all kinds are seeking to glean intelligence from Big Data and translate it into a competitive business advantage. Big Data, much of which is
unstructured—Web click-streams, Social Media messages, images and video, and readings from sensors on increasing numbers of network-connected machines—is growing at an exponential rate. Traditional structured databases are not well suited to storing and processing Big Data at this new scale
cost-effectively.

New technologies have emerged to deal  with the volume, velocity, and variety of these new sources of data—notably Hadoop-based Big Data analytics and object storage solution systems. As promising as these new technologies are, today’s general purpose infrastructure runs into problems when these workloads move to petabyte scale, and the data center can experience capacity constraints, spiraling energy costs, infrastructure complexity, and inefficiencies.

To maximize the value of Big Data, you need systems that are purpose-built for Big Data workloads.

HPE is taking the next big step ahead with the introduction of HPE Apollo 4500 Systems. This new family of systems is purpose-built to service the technologies that are driving the Big Data IT revolution—Hadoop and Big Data analytics and object storage systems. These purpose-built systems will
give you a competitive edge for accelerated market share and business growth byenabling you work with growing volumes of data—at petabyte scale and beyond. Efficiently storing and quickly converting large amounts of information into insights will enable better and faster decision-making to drive revenue growth, reduce costs, mitigate risks, and aid you in developing new markets quickly. And HPE Apollo 4500 Systems allow you to accomplish all of this while meeting your data center challenges of space, energy, and time.

The HPE Apollo 4510 System is purpose-built for the variety of Big Data object storage solutions—from cost-effective, high-capacity content repositories that address petabyte-scale data volumes, to the tuned responsiveness required for content distribution systems. Density-optimized HPE Apollo 4510 systems are ideal to form the foundation platform for object storage solutions ranging from collaboration and content distribution, to content repositories and active archives, to back-up repositories and cold storage, and everything in between.

The HPE Apollo 4510 System is an ideal Big Data storage server for object storage solutions from HPE HyperScale Data Eco-System partners including Cleversafe, Scality, Ceph, OpenStack®/Swift, and it forms the building blocks for HPE’s own Helion Content Depot.

This one-server, 4U chassis system provides cost-effective, space-saving storage capacity of up to 544 terabytes per system and 5.44 petabytes per 42U rack to meet object storage solution needs at any scale, from one to hundreds of petabytes and more. With up to 68 hot-plug LFF HDDs/SSDs and HPE ProLiant Gen9 server, processor, memory, and I/O options, it can meet the storage capacity, throughput, and responsiveness requirements of every
variety of Big Data object storage solution—and provide the right compute for the right price.

For smaller implementations or for “plug-and-play” integration into traditional enterprise rack-server data centers, you may also consider the HPE Apollo 4200 Gen9 Server with up to 28 LFF HDDs/SSDs for object storage solutions.

HPE Apollo 4520 System: Optimized for clustered storage solutions

The HPE Apollo 4520 System is optimized for high availability clustered storage at Petabyte scale.
